Like milnacipran, these derivatives generally behave as multiple inhibitors of monoamine reuptake sites (Expert Opin. Investig. Drugs 2007, 16, 1365); the relative activity of the products under consideration at the different sites varies in relation to the type of the Ar and R1-R5 groups.

BIOLOGICAL TESTS : 1) Evaluation of analgesic activity:
The analgesic activity of the formula (1) compounds and of milnacipran, chosen as reference compound, was determined using a conventional pain module in which formaldehyde is injected to cause a painful sensation in animals (Eur. J. Pharmacol. 2001, 421, 109). Protocol :
The rats (Male Sprague Dawley rats (ICO: OFA SD
[IOPS], Iffa Credo, France) are placed in observation boxes in Plexiglas above an angled mirror to facilitate observation of their hind paws. After thirty minutes habituation, the animals are given an injection of formaldehyde diluted to 2.5% on the plantar surface of the right hind paw. The injection of formaldehyde produces behavioural responses which occur in two phases: - an early phase, 0 to 5 min after injection of formaldehyde, corresponding to stimulation of the receptors specialized in the transmission of nociceptive stimuli .
- a late phase which occurs between 20 and 30 min after injection. This phase corresponds to the stimulation of receptors by inflammatory mediators and/or to hyperexcitability of the dorsal horn induced during the first phase. This later phase therefore involves central sensitization and causes pain more representative of neuropathic pain compared with the pain which occurs during the first phase. On this account, only the results obtained in this later phase are taken into consideration in the present application. To study the compounds of the invention, we selected two expressions of painful behaviour (paw licking, lifting of injected paw) and chose as observation period the period which corresponds to the late phase (i.e. 22.5-27.5 min) . During this 5 min phase, the animals are observed every 30 s and the following behaviours are recorded: licking or non-licking of the injected hind paw and lifting or not of the injected hind paw. Ten observations give a maximum score of 10 for each parameter. The products of the invention are given via intra-peritoneal route 15 min before the injection of formaldehyde. Results :
In the formaldehyde test, the formula (Ia) compound representing the compounds of the invention has remarkable analgesic activity. The compound of formula (Ia) significantly reduces both paw lifting and paw licking, which occur during the late phase of the test. The advantage of the formula (Ia) compound compared with milnacipran can be clearly seen when comparing the amplitude of the effects observed with a dose of 40 mg/Kg.
For both parameters, compound (Ia) proves to be more effective than milnacipran, in particular with respect to paw lifting for which the difference with milnacipran is statistically significant.
To summarize, at a dose of 40 mg/Kg administered via intraperitoneal route (ip) , compound (Ia), representing the formula (1) compounds, produces higher analgesia than that produced by milnacipran in an acute pain model.
2) Evaluation of antistress / anxiolytic activity:
Antistress / anxiolytic activity was determined on a conventional model using ultrasonic vocalizations (USVs) emitted by an adult rat when subjected to stress (Eur. J. Pharmacol. 2003, 463, 133). Protocol : The experiments were conducted in standard operative cages (250x320x250 mm) insulated from noise and light. The floor of the cages is covered with a grid in stainless steel and connected to an electric shock generator delivering a fixed intensity of 0.4 mA. The device is provided on one of its walls with a light source (2 lux) . The ULTRAVOX system (Noldus, Wageningen, Pays Bas) is used to record ultrasonic vocalizations at a frequency defined by an ultrasound detector, an audio-filter box and acquisition software. For this experiment, the capture frequency was set at 22 kHz. The software allows the recording of all vocalizations of 22 kHz lasting a time of more 100 ms emitted by the animals. The test starts with a habituation session of 11 min 25 s, during which the animals are individually placed in the operative device without being subjected to conditioning (neither light nor electric shock) .
During a second phase, the animals are subjected to a conditioning phase of 3 sessions given over 3 consecutive days. Each session consists of a pre-shock period of 160 s, followed by 15 repeats of conditioned stimulus (CS) /unconditioned stimulus (UCS) ; that is to say that an unavoidable shock of 0.4 mA (UCS) lasting 1 s is applied at the last second of light signal presentation (total time 5 s) . Each CS/UCS pair is separated by an inter-test interval of 30 s. During the test phase, the same conditions are used as during the conditioning phase, with the difference that the electric shocks are not delivered
15 times. Here a single CS/UCS pair is applied at the start of a session, after a pre-shock period of 160 s. Next, only the light signal is maintained. The first test day is used to select those rats emitting USVs lasting 100 s or more
(the animals which did not reach this laid-down criterion were therefore excluded from the study) . The selected rats are given a subcutaneous injection
(volume 10 mL/kg) of physiological saline solution (control group) or the products to be tested. They are then isolated for 30 min before being placed in the operative cages for
USV recording. A rest period of 48 h is provided between each test (period for full elimination of the injected product). Results :
In the USV test, the formula (Ia) compound, representing this chemical series, and milnacipran have equivalent antistress / anxiolytic activity.
The minimum significant dose (MSD) needed to reduce the duration of the ultrasonic vocalizations is the same for both compounds. To summarize, compound (Ia), representing compounds belonging to this chemical series, has antistress / anxiolytic properties that are as powerful as those of milnacipran after administering via intraperitoneal route.
3) Evaluation of antidepressant activity: The antidepressant activity of the compounds of the invention was evidenced by the forced swimming test in rats
(Eur. J. Pharmacol. 1978, 47, 379) . This model is widely used since it is predictive of antidepressant activity in man . Protocol:
The rats (Male Sprague Dawley rats (ICO: OFA SD [IOPS], Iffa Credo, France), are placed in a cylinder (height 45 cm and diameter 20 cm) filled with water at 25°C ± 0.5 up to a height of 17 cm. This height allows the rats to swim or float without their paws touching the bottom of the cylinder. 24 h before the test day, the rats are placed in the cylinder for 15 min, after which time they no longer attempt to escape and remain immobile. On the test day, the animals are put back in the cylinder and the duration of immobility of the animal is measured and monitored using audiovisual recording for 5 min. The products of the invention are administered via ip route 30 min before the test. A rat is considered to be immobile when it allows itself to float and only makes small movements to remain on the surface. Results :
The forced swim test (Figure 1) shows that the formula (Ia) compound, representing the series, is capable of significantly decreasing the duration of immobility of the animals at a dose of 40 mg/Kg after administering via ip route. By comparison, the same dose of milnacipran (40 mg/Kg) has no effect on the immobility of the animals under these test conditions. To summarize, compound (Ia), and the compounds belonging to this chemical series, have anti- immobility properties representing antidepressant activity that are much higher than those of milnacipran, after a single administration. The compounds of the invention therefore have a broad spectrum of activities i.e. anxiolytic, analgesic and antidepressant. The anti-immobility activity obtained after a single administration of the compounds of formula (1) is unexpected insofar as the monoamine reuptake inhibitors such as milnacipran or citalopram are only active under the conditions of this test after repeat administration. This characteristic of the compounds of formula (1) is advantageous since it could translate, in a depressed patient, as a reduction in the time of antidepressant action and/or improved response to treatment and hence the providing of a better medical service. In this respect, it is helpful to recall that the antidepressants that are currently clinically available are only effective after several weeks of treatment, and the percentage of responders to the treatment remains average (N. Engl. J. Med. 2006, 354, 1231; Lancet 2006, 367, 153) .
The major antidepressant activity observed with the products of the invention could also be of advantage for the treatment of chronic pain. It is effectively acknowledged that in addition to the sensorial component
(measured by acute pain tests) the emotional component plays an important role in chronic pain. Since the compounds of the invention act on both dimensions of pain
(i.e.; sensorial and emotional) they could prove to be particularly well adapted for the treatment of chronic pain . On this account, the compounds of general formula (1) or one of its therapeutically acceptable salts or one of its enantiomers are potentially useful as medicinal products, in particular in the treatment of some pathologies such as anxiety, depression the treatment of pain notably chronic pain, areas in which therapeutic needs are not entirely met and for which the discovery of new treatments is highly desirable.
The compounds of formula (1) or one of its therapeutically acceptable salts or one of its enantiomers can also be used for the treatment of fibromyalgia or erectile disorders such as early ejaculation or sexual impotence .
